Guys,
Mercury can't be in the game because it's the hottest planet in the solar system. It basically touches the Sun's CMEs and we would all be dead immediately due to radiation and heat. Why do people want to go to a molten rock and fight the vex? These things blow my mind.
Why do people keep saying VENUS is hotter than Mercury? You guys need to learn the order of the planets.

We go to Mercury in PVP... Also given that Bungie throws all physics and facts out the window with regards to the planets in general, there's no reason we can't go to Mercury. If the Traveler can terraform Venus, which in itself is impossible given that you can't even put a probe in the atmosphere without it melting and being crushed, than we can play on Mercury, Jupiter, etc. Even Bioware didn't try to colonize or do anything with Venus in Mass Effect, which says something. However it appears the Traveler's space magic can even override the laws of physics and the universe.
